Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the ½ Toman - Agha Mohammad Khan (type C; Kashan) 1204 (1790) coin from Iran is that it was minted during the reign of Agha Mohammad Khan Qajar, who was the founder of the Qajar dynasty and ruled Iran from 1789 to 1797. This coin was part of a new currency system introduced by Agha Mohammad Khan, which replaced the old currency system that had been in place since the Safavid era. The coin features an image of the king on one side and an inscription in Persian on the other side, and its gold content makes it a valuable and sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
